    Just placed an order with Pinballlife.

    4 rainbow 555 wedge LEDs
    1 backbox lock
    1 coin door lock
    1 switch adjustor tool

    Total w/ shipping from Marco: $40.75
    Total w/ shipping from Pinballlife: $25.20

    Glad I did a side-by-side comparison. I'm sure some things are cheaper at Marco and I've spent a lot of money with those guys and I know they have great customer service... but...

    Surprisingly, shipping was only $1 more at Marco..

    All items were higher except the coin door lock. Those were exactly the same.

    I will say if I had placed my $40 order with Marco last night it would have shipped today, as it stands my order has not. However, it's not like I'm dying to install that replacement backbox lock by the weekend!

    The search function on Marco could be better, just the general search engine I mean. If you type in "lock" the first couple things that show up are whole machines for sale.. huh? However, if you know to type in "lock and cam" (or is it "lock & cam") then the correct items show up. I usually try and find something similar to what I'm looking for and see what they call it, even if it's not the right part, then go back and do a search on that exact term.

    Btw: Your search on "coin door lock" returns nothing. They must have their boolean values set to "AND" instead of "OR"

    I placed an order with Marco Sunday night and had shipment notification with tracking number at 7:48am on Monday. Standard 3-5 day shipping. I expect it will arrive today.

    Their prices may be higher but I've never had a problem with shipping or customer service.

    Fwiw, order I made on Sunday night from Marco was in my mailbox today.
